      13/ No, the problem is not that McCarthy is hopelessly opaque; it's that he's trying to do a thing, and he does that thing poorly and laughably. https://twitter.com/anosognosically/status/1308099629511254018 …

      You, my good buddy, are a fourteen carat gold plated son of a bitch. That's what your problem is. And that being your problem, there's not a whole lot of people in sympathy with you. Or with your problem.

      18/ Fair enough! Let me replace it with "I have nothing to be insecure about, because people like my writing and it earns me money ... which isn't bad for a hobby I have on the SIDE, after my other hobbies like farming, which I do after my actual careerhttps://twitter.com/prettyXricky/status/1308103876009250816 …

      responding to "you are insecure" with "nuh-uh i have big checks" is not refuting my argument. it doesnt even qualify as moving the goalposts, its just irrelevant. you didnt even defend your own work, jsut its marketability

          25/ I posted the sales figures because @TweetsBeach asked for them, three distinct times, IIRC. The reason I haven't defended my style is that you haven't asked me to. And, frankly, I feel no need to. >>>https://twitter.com/prettyXricky/status/1308106673656074240 …

          27/ to know what makes fiction work, and when it fails. And then I wrote, re-wrote, and re-re-re-re-wrote until my output matched my own [ very ] high standards. As always, I trust myself far more than I trust anyone else.
